Look for the oil weep...
Oil appeared to be coming from the clutch cover gasket...
So got the impact screw driver out and removed the wallowed out factory case screws....
with that out of the way the internals looked good... the original gasket remained intact on the engine case side...So I Opted not to attempt to peel it off and get access to the pull out mesh screen...
Some shmutz in the bottom of the case but nothing i'm concerned about...
Looked at the kick lever seal and it was munted....So went to look at the gasket/seal parts bin....and....no....replacement...kick lever case seal...
Hmmmm.....OK now I realize why it leaks and why there is no replacement seal...because the munted seal is the new seal...ugh.
Ok repeat process on 81 swampy engine... Inspect internals...rough. missing semi auto clutch adjustment spring...But all there it seems...
the seal is ok but firmly set...the rest of cover is rough...
So went to Ebay and purchased another ct110 seal kit...
Lesson is...always confirm and have the right part in hand before trying to replace it when possible.
